Togglea breakpoint at current line (orctrl+shift+b)Gotoa selected breakpoint (orctrl+shift+g, orMenu>Goto>Goto Python Breakpoint...)Clear Allbreakpoints in current file (orMenu>Tools>Breakpoints>Clear All Python Breakpoints)

Caveats
- only space indentation is supported
- in some code fragments the plugin may incorrectly indent the breakpoint; in such cases just use Indent/Unindent keyboard shortcuts to move it into desired position
